Rail Simulator

When I launch rail simulator it says this "Sign in with your EA account to activate your game on this computer". But when I do that I get an error message that says this "In order to launch this game, please login to the EA download manager to verify your ownership, then try again." What should I do?

I am running Windows 7. I recently purchased and downloaded Rail Simulator but when I try to run it I get the error message "RailSim Launcher application has stopped working " then nothing !! What`s gone wrong ?

Rail Simulator won't launch

I just bought Rail Simulator through online purchase. I (seemed to) successfully downloaded it, and it showed up in my Origins Games window. WHen I click on it, then clock the Play button, an EA window pops up asking for my email and password. I type in my Origins password, and get an error message that the server can't be contacted. I have repeated this procedure over the coarse of a couple of days, always with the same result. ALL OF MY OTHER ORIGINS GAMES START JUST FINE.

I even clicked on the link FORGOT MY PASSWORD, reset my password, and STILL got the same result.
